Or how about numbers of deaths, many more Americans were killed than brits, even thoe America had many many more troops, you still got your assess kicked by a smaller British contingent, in your own country, how long did it take for the American army to run all the way from Canada back to USA, you are used to retreating thoe, aren't you

The war of 1812 was a good thing in the end, ot unified Canada, with the English, English Canadians and French Canadians and natives, it gave them a sense of identity and nationhood which they didn't previously have, they became Canada, a unique and proud country, a British parliamentary democracy, with the queen as head of state, and a valued member of the British commonwealth, they are a prosperous and liberal nation, secular, athiest, modern, democratic, national healthcare, all the british ideals, plentifull natural resources, good economy, they are very thankfull for this and for britain defending them, that is why life is much better in Canada than anerica, the people loyal to britain were right, and why Canada is great, America would be too if they had stayed loyal to Britain, it was your mistake, and now you can only look enviously at canada and dream of what could have been, America could have been liberal, free, safe and prosperous like canada, but you chose the wrong way, you made that mistake, and you tried to make Canada join you, but they knew better and are now much happier and prosperous, USA made the mistake, now you live with it

<quoted text>I wonder what will be the outcome if there is a referendum in 2016? It seems to me that Unionists have the majority at the moment but things may change. The republic may recover to pre crash times making more financial sense for the North going more Nationalist

Anyone who thinks he's got a handle on Irish politics (North or South) is nuts.

If you were just calling our monarchy a monarchy, then that would be perfectly fine.

But, you are not just calling our monarchy a monarchy; you are claiming that because we are a monarchy, then we are therefore not a democracy - a totally bogus claim.

That is why your whole argument about Britain's monarchy is inherently dishonest.

<quoted text>Your excuses are typical of a NotBot who finds my foot up their azzes when they say something stupid like the same definition in the English language from a dozen different sources doesn't mean what it means.

Definitions are meaningless when reality contradicts them. If Britain were truly a monarchy, then our monarchs would be actively involved in our political system, the people would have no say in the government, and the monarchs would be wielding their powers on a regular basis.

Reality: our monarchs do nothing.

Reality: Royal Assent has not been refused since 1707.

Reality: we have a Parliament.

Reality: the Commons, the legislative body of Parliament, are elected by the people.

Reality: we are a democracy.

Face reality, little boy.

The United Kingdom is a typical western democracy with a figurehead monarch.

We have just entered 2013, Barefoot, not 1613. Time to get with the times.

Of course they are. Because believers are a danger to them. Believers do unspeakable things to those who don't think like them. Its bad enough that some humans are unkind to others but its worse when those humans use dark age mythology to justify it. Hopefully one day religion will cease in this world and people will operate on logic. That alone will change the world for the better.

Atheists like Himler, Hitler, Stalin, Lenin and Trotsky.History classes are offered in high school ...did you drop out?

<quoted text>Ah... so after three months, SuperFAG acknowledges that the sun rises in the east, sets in the west, and that the United KING_dom is a monarchy.Let's check Barefoot's position on this... oh... it seems that is the very first thing he said on the topic...

I have never claimed otherwise. What I am disputing is your absurd notion that our monarchy renders us undemocratic considering our monarchs do nothing whereas our elected MPs in the Commons make all the decisions.

Three months, and Barefoot is still stuck in the middle ages. Time to move on, manchild.
